4. You've Hit A Major Age Milestone

Just blew out the candles on your 40th birthday? It’s time for an adjustment. While it doesn’t happen overnight, each time you hit a major milestone, whether it’s your ‘30s, ‘40s, or ‘50s, it’s time to re-evaluate your training routine.

As you get older, you won’t be able to handle quite as much volume as you did when you were younger and, likewise, your workout frequency may have to come down. This doesn’t mean you still can’t see excellent progress; it just means adjustments need to be put into place.

Take some time to evaluate this on each major birthday and you can be sure that you’re keeping up with the changing needs of your body.
